Were All Seeds Discovered?

  1. From the Configuration workspace, under Discovery, click Seeds.
  2. On the Seeds page, sort the list of nodes by the Discovery Seed Results column. For any node in an error state, consider the following:

    • Failed discovery due to an unreachable node or unresolved DNS name or IP address—For these types of failures, verify network connectivity to the node and check for accurate DNS name resolution. To work around DNS issues, use the IP address to seed the node or include the hostname in a hostnolookup.conf file. For problems due to IP addresses that should not be resolved to hostnames, include the IP addresses in a ipnolookup.conf file. See the hostnolookup.conf and ipnolookup.conf reference pages, or the Linux manpages, for more information.
    • License node count exceeded—This scenario occurs when the number of devices already discovered reached your license limit. You can either delete some discovered nodes or purchase additional node pack licenses.

      When tracking license information, note the following:

      For details about license limits, see “Track Your NNMi Licenses” in the NNMi Help for Administrators.

    • Node discovered but no SNMP response—SNMP communication problems can occur for seeded devices as well as devices that are discovered through auto-discovery. For more information, see Evaluate Communications.
